“I am a client-centered therapist who takes immense joy in assisting individuals seeking diverse forms of support. My passion lies in nurturing and enriching relationships, whether it involves couples, marriage, or family dynamics. Additionally, I find immense fulfillment in engaging in play therapy with children under the age of 12. My practice reflects a profound flexibility in working with clients across a wide spectrum of age groups. This allows me to bring my expertise and dedication to those who seek my guidance, ensuring that each individual’s unique needs and circumstances are met with the utmost care and professionalism. I specialize in working with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds, including people of color and minority communities, who may be grappling with issues such as depression, anxiety, and trauma. My extensive experience extends to working with children as young as 5 years old, adolescents, and teenagers. My professional journey has been enriched by multiple trainings in various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma therapy, Play therapy, Imago relationship therapy, Emotional Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. These trainings have equipped me with a comprehensive toolkit to address a wide range of mental health challenges and provide effective support to individuals seeking assistance. I am fluent in multiple languages, including Mandarin (my native language), Japanese, Spanish, French, and Korean. Presently, I offer counseling services in both Mandarin and English, harnessing my linguistic abilities to connect with clients and provide them with effective support.
A beautiful childhood has the power to heal a lifetime, especially in times of adversity. Unfortunately, the wounds of a difficult childhood may require a lifetime of experiences to mend. I firmly believe that cultivating an intimate relationship demands effort from both parties. Moreover, I have faith that right here, within the nurturing embrace of NCC (Northwest Catholic Counseling), within the realm of counseling, we can guide you out of the shadows and help you discover your own unique light amidst the darkness.”
